55Nice plot of land for my doggy to roam around in at Bodega! Plenty of room for exploration, I wouldn’t recommend for smaller dogs however since the landscaping was so tall it would be really easy to lose sight. Selah F.

55The space was huge & spacious for sniffing & exploring! There is plenty of balls/toys for tossing, fetching, agility course to try out, & chair/pagoda to relax for the humans. Also as noted, there is LOTS of poop bags & receptacles available which is super convenient for picking up poop. We did hear barking at a distance but did not see dogs or other domestic animals. The field is mowed & dry this time of year.
For reactive dogs visiting: My dog is reactive (fearful of) other dogs, not humans. The day of our visit, it was earlier in the morning around 8:30 am. We did spot 2 different dogs with their humans at separate times going on their walk on the road upon our arrival. My dog did not see them since we waited until they passed. We mostly stayed at the upper 2/3 of the field away from road. No other dogs were seen walking during our visit. The road does not have sidewalk or walking friendly access so there would be a lower chance of foot traffic with dog walkers. Keep that in mind if your dog can run the full length of the field to bark/lunge/charge as dogs walking by along the road. Overall, we felt comfortable enough in the space & would visit again. cathy w.

55Beautiful spot! Easy to find, very clear directions. Long and narrow lot with the shade/porch swing at the far end.
The agility equipment was great to have, and we'll definitely be back!
Some chickens visible/audible on the other side of the fence and a couple vehicles driving by, but no dogs/people/large livestock visibleElliott P.

55Great location! Big property with plenty of space to run. My
Dog was too big for the training tunnel lol but they had some cool agility tools. Plenty of toys n balls. Great for a dog that loves to run n fetch while you sit in the covered swing. Will for sure be coming back Jonathan N.

555 stars like always! Thank you Jim for adding the solar lights and the new step at the covered swing. Love it!!
I do agree with another members post that it is not Jim’s responsibility or any other visitors responsibility to clean up after your dog/dogs. Jim provides many scoopers, poop bags and garbage cans. Please use them.
This is the best SniffSpot in town. We need to keep it that way. Theresa M.

55We had an amazing time! Charlotte is a fabulous host and a lovely person. As a new spot, she’s making sure it’s welcoming for both the four-legged and two-legged.😊 Excited to see what she does with the place! My girls had fun running around and sniffing everywhere and everything they could. There were lots of zoomies! I found the spot safe and secure for my knucklehead, Poppy! And my Bella was happy chasing and hunting for her ball! So fun. We can’t wait to go back! 🐶🐾🥎😊Claudette B.

55What an awesome spot for our 4 little dogs. We have 2 seniors and 2 middle aged dogs who love to explore. This spot was big enough for them to do that, and to still be able to watch them without having to go far. It’s settled in a beautiful area, and Charlotte allowed us in 15 minutes earlier than our time because we misjudged how long it would take. My dogs had a wonderful time, and my daughter, husband and I enjoyed relaxing in the fresh air. We will definitely be back! Sarah H.

55We had a lovely time! Spot is muddy in spots but not as bad as some other spots. There is good shade available and the spot is easy to access. Charlotte brought us some apples, which was a fun treat.
Neighbors have 2 dogs across the road that came down and watched/barked for a few minutes but then were taken away by their people. It was not a significant issue for us but something to keep in mind that is out of the spot owner's control. Heather W.

55Sierra, our GSP, had a ball! Lots of room to run, puddles, mud, grass. Our girl was living her best life. Thankfully Charlotte has a hose available for rinsing off before getting back in the car! Access was easy and there were some toys, poop bags, and trash cans available as well as a couple of chairs. We'll be back! Kara M.

FAQ about our Bodega Bay dog parks
Are dog parks good for dogs?
It is important for dogs to have off leash exercise to sniff and run. But the free and open nature of public dog parks has drawbacks. There could be aggressive dogs, disease transmission and cleanliness issues. For this reason, many dog behaviorists discourage visiting public dog parks and recommend Sniffspot's private dog parks. Sniffspot private dog parks only allow one guest to book at a time and are not open to the public, which solves many of these issues.
Are dog parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private for just you and dogs you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 97% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Bodega Bay area are 5 stars.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 45 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 6 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can also filter locations to avoid other domestic animals and people. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions.
